ALLROUND PROTECTION
You can count on comfort and protection throughout the autumn and winter with Snickers Workwear’s new
AllroundWork Jackets for professional tradesmen and women.
Stay dry, warm and comfortable by choosing from a selection of water-repellent jackets that will give you basic
protection from light showers with great breathability to ventilate your body if you continue to be active on site for
short periods. But if you need 100% protection from the rain for long periods on site, check out Snickers’ GORE-
TEX jackets and trousers. These highly technical garments are extremely durable with a membrane that has
over 1.4 billion pores per square cm. They’re 100% waterproof to keep you dry, windproof to keep you warm,
and breathable to keep you comfortable all day long
There’s a host of designs, styles and extensive size options so you can select the right jacket for you and your
job. There are also a great range of Winter Vests and Bodywarmers, even a Body Mapping Micro Fleece – so
you’ll be well looked after all day, every day. www.snickersworkwear.co.uk

NEW DURHAM SHOWROOM
Workwear Express has officially opened the doors to a new, fully fitted customer showroom
and outlet at its County Durham headquarters.

workwear, uniform and promotional clothing.
The company has spent £150,000 to refit the new showroom and outlet store at the Belmont Industrial
Estate site. Andrew Ward, MD of Workwear Express, said: “We are delighted to welcome customers to
our specially-designed new showroom and outlet store. It is a great opportunity for businesses in the

RUGGED COMFORT WITH NEW HOODIES
Snickers says the new range of hoodies and sweatshirts for craftsmen and women are probably the most
comfortable they’ve ever designed.
The ‘Full Zip’ or ‘Overhead’ Sweatshirt and Hoodie choices are ideally combined with Snickers’ First and Second
Layer Undergarments and can comfortably be worn under a jacket on chilly days. They’re made from a cosy,
durable polycotton fabric for extra ruggedness and have a soft-brushed finish on the inside for extra comfort plus
handwarmer pockets at the front. They also feature an unmistakable Snickers logo and are ideal for company
profiling. www.snickersworkwear.co.uk
